Satellite Services

[smileyp]

Hi,
We are in the process of our application. We have two teenage sons who want to know what the satellite services are like in Perth. Can you get Sky Sports, where is the best place to look for a good deal.
Any help gratefully received.

No idea on costs etc, but this will tell you what progs are available. they show English Premier League (EPL) so not prob on that score.

Thanks so much for that. This will make the transition much easier knowing they can still have their football. This site is great!:rolleyes:

We have foxtel - great now the clocks have gone back and only 7 hours time difference so don't have to stay up really late to watch a match. They can go and watch Perth Glory (very poor last year but hope for better things this year), AFL is really big here and they may get into that.

I don't watch Lost but it is shown. Heroes was shown here before Uk which was a bit of a surprise. Dr. Who series with Catherine Tate as his side kick is just being shown, nip and tuck, desperate housewives (I don't watch these either lol) are also on.

We were happy with Pets on the Move, we lived in Preston and used the Chorley Franchise because it was just down the road. They let us put a cushion in for Becky (with smells of home!!), and it was still with her when we picked her up at Quarentine.

I live in Leeming, which is an older suburb, 10 mins by train to the City and 20 mins drive/bus to Freo. We've been here almost 19 months

Thanks for all the info Ali
Please can you tell me the set up cost and the monthly subscription fees for Foxtel. I am currently trying to get realistic figure of the cost of living out there. Only 5 week till we arrive now getting a bit scary.
You said you have lived there for 19months , any regrets or is there just no looking back ?

:rolleyes: Thanks again Diane
